Pocket FM Radio
with Earbuds

Step One

Removing Battery Insulation Strip

Your radio comes with an insulation strip to
protect the batteries. You must remove it before

using the radio.

1. Use a coin to turn and remove the battery
compartment cover from the back of the
radio.
2. Remove the insulation strip from between
the batteries, and then replace the cover.
Step Two

Using the Belt Clip

You can clip the radio on your belt using the
attached belt clip on the back of the radio for
easy carrying.

Using the Beads

Adjust the two beads on the earbud cables to
wear the radio like a necklace. Position the first
bead as close as possible to the radio so the
earbud cables are not damaged. Position the
second bead as you like to make the loop size
as desired.
Step Three
Using the Radio
1. Turn on/off on the back of the radio to on.
2. Press RESET to ensure the radio starts from the lowest frequency
(FM 88MHz).
3. Repeatedly press SCAN to select your desired station. When no stations
are clearly tuned, the radio may scan to the highest frequency (FM 108
MHz). Press RESET to re-start from the lowest frequency.
4. Adjust the volume to a comfortable listening level.
5. Turn on/off to off to turn off the radio.
Step Four

Listening Safely

To protect your hearing, follow these guidelines
when you use earbuds.
• Set the volume to the lowest setting before
you begin listening. After you begin
listening, adjust the volume to a
comfortable level.
• Do not listen at extremely high volume
levels. Extended high-volume listening can
lead to permanent hearing loss.
• Once you set the volume, do not increase
it. Over time, your ears adapt to the volume
level, so a volume level that does not cause
discomfort might still damage your hearing.

Traffic Safety

• Do not wear earbuds while operating a
motor vehicle or riding a bicycle. This can
create a traffic hazard and could be illegal
in some areas.
• Even though some earbuds let you hear
some outside sounds when listening at
normal volume levels, they still can present
a traffic hazard.
